Walt PeregoyChanticleerCharacter Design
Art Group of 4 (Walt Disney, 1960).Chanticleer was one
of those Disney Studio projects that went through years of
development, but never saw completion. It was first attempted in
the 1940s, based on an old French play by Edmond Rostand. The onset
of World War II halted production, but the idea was revived in
1960. Marc Davis and Ken Anderson both did a number of concept
sketches for the project, as did Walt Peregoy (1925 - 2015). Here's
a set of four highly stylized illustrations of barnyard hens done
for this lost film. Art is in ink and watercolor on paper measuring
11.5" x 17", 11.5" x 15", 10" x 17", and 10.25" x 17". Each piece
is mounted to a separate backing board; three measuring 14.5" x
23", and one 13.5" x 20.25". Image sizes are 10" to 13". Each board
has a protective clear sheet of acetate. Extremely cool art from a
Disney Legend! Overall condition is Very Good. From the Walt
Peregoy Archives.
